Welcome to First Line Friday. Today I am going to feature a book by four of my favorite authors, Bill Myers, Frank Peretti, Angela Hunt, and Alton Gansky.

The Next Wave of Stories in the Harbingers Series Arrives
Cycle 2 of the Harbingers series continues the story of four gifted strangers brought together to fight a growing darkness.
In Bill Myers's "The Revealing," the team finds themselves in Rome trying to retrieve the mystical spear Hitler once owned--the very spear that pierced Christ's side. This task will take them from hidden chambers inside the Vatican to a mysterious seaside cave with powers they could never expect.
Frank Peretti's "Infestation" unleashes a microscopic evil on the world that deceives, blinds, kills, then spreads. The Harbingers team must confront a monster bent on seducing and destroying mankind.
In "Infiltration" by Angela Hunt, the team is wounded and barely holding together. Forced to split up, they realize their investigations have led them into dangerous waters.
Alton Gansky's "The Fog" unleashes a supernatural mist unlike any other. There are vicious things in the fog that kill whatever they find. One team member realizes that the ultimate sacrifice may have to be made.

First Line:

"What're you sketchin' now?" Cowboy asked. I flipped my notebook shut like a kid caught with porn.The big guy smirked, "You know, Miss Brenda, you don't have to keep hidin' your gift under a bushel."
Quite a hook, huh?! What's your first line? Let me know in the comments, and then go visit my blogging friends and see their first line.

I have the first line from Thomas Locke's "Fault Lines" on my blog today, but I'm going to share the first line from Candace Calvert's "Disaster Status" from her Mercy Hospital Collection. The Kindle collection with all three books in the series is on sale this month for just $2.99, so I couldn't resist!

"Fire captain Scott McKenna bolted through the doors of Pacific Mercy ER, his boots thudding and heart pounding as the unconscious child began to stiffen and jerk in his arms."

Ooh I love Frank Peretti and Angela Hunt. Why haven't I heard of this before? Thanks for sharing! :)

I'm sharing about Three Wishes by Lisa T. Bergren over on my blog today, but I'm currently reading the sequel, Four Winds, so I'll share that here. :)

"Javier laughed and shook his head as we reached the top of the sand dune, Centinela loping in a wide circle around us. "I do not know if I can court a girl from the future and have a pet wolf," he said in Spanish. "That is a lot to ask of one man."

Happy Friday! My first line is from The Spinster & the Cowboy by Lena Nelson Dooley: "When the sharp rap on his closed office door roused him, Joshua Dillinger raised his gaze from the legal document he had been studying with intense concentration."

I know I’m breaking protocol but I’m still readin the same book! So this is the first line of another chapter.. just to whet your reading appetite:“Right… right here.” Peter came to a halt between two massive trees where the undergrowth provided a good screen for anyone hiding.A Name Unknown by Roseanna White.I need to find more time to read!
